Mini biography:
Attractive actress who charmed moviegoers as Al Pacino's tango partner in 1992's Scent of a Woman. Trained at a London drama and dance school, Anwar appeared in many BBC-TV productions before making her film debut in the U.S.-Yugoslavian production Manifesto (1988). She followed with If Looks Could Kill (1991) before making a splash (literally) as real-life "diving girl" on horseback Sonora Webster in the sincere and underrated Disney picture Wild Hearts Can't Be Broken (1991). Had the film been a hit, it could have been a star-making vehicle for the radiant Anwar (who also managed to suppress her British accent for this American role). Since the success of Scent of a Woman she has starred as Michael J. Fox's love interest in For Love or Money (1993) and as the heroine in Abel Ferrara's gruesome Body Snatchers (1994).
